I got a bit carried away watching that :) Yes, it looks like that's what I'm referring to. With me, my muse often sings well when I'm doodling. The problem is that I sometimes want to return to the doodle, which becomes problematic when you're sharing a classical whiteboard. Cheers, Etienne On

Some TVs may also try to rescale the inputs, or enhance/process the image in ways that can improve perceived video quality. Things like increasing frame rates of sources that are lower frame rates (thus the 120 Hz and 240 Hz TVs that attempt to make 24, 30, and 60 FPS sources look better), or

Re: The great Netflix vpn debacle! (geofeeds)

Where possible vote with your dollars by selecting providers that do. Where there are multiple providers and none support v6, make it clear to all that the first one to support v6 will get your business and that subsequently, the best v6 support will win. Where there are not multiple providers,

Televisions generally have a way smaller pixel density than a computer monitor. It is very noticeable. On Wed, Sep 1, 2021 at 2:27 PM wrote: > > Every time I've read a thread about using TVs for monitors several > people who'd tried would say don't do it. I think the gist was that > the image

Every time I've read a thread about using TVs for monitors several people who'd tried would say don't do it. I think the gist was that the image processors in the TVs would fuzz text or something like that. That it was usable but they were unhappy with their attempts, it was tiring on the eyes.
